Wave 17 - T'Ong - Cryogenic Stasis

[keoki]

At the Start of the game, place 2 non-Borg [crew] Upgrade with a cost of 5 or less face down beneath this card. ACTION: Flip one of the Upgrades that is beneath this card face up (your choice) and deploy it to your ship, even if it exceeds your ship's restrictions. Then place 2 Time Tokens on that Upgrade. Discard this card when there are no more Upgrades beneath it.

Do you pay SP for the Crew Upgrades placed under Cryogenic Stasis, or are they included in the cost of Cryogenic Stasis?

Must the two Crew Upgrades cost 5 SP or less when added together, or 5 SP or less each?

Is there a faction penalty for the Crew Upgrades placed under Cryogenic Stasis?

No, you only pay the cost of upgrades deployed to your ship these upgrades are placed under this card.

The 2 Upgrades face down under Cryogenic Stasis may have a total of 5 SP or less (including the addition of faction penalty or additional costs).

No, you only pay the cost of upgrades deployed to your ship these upgrades are placed under this card.

Follow up question:
Would QUARK (Ferengi crew) maintain a weapon or tech if placed in the Cryogenic Stasis.

Would William T. Riker's (5SP Federation Crew) ability to ADD 1 CREW supersede the limit of 2 crew on Cryogenic Stasis.

Any card placed face down does not have any active card text and cannot be affected by any effects except by the card that placed it there.

If Quark were placed under Cryogenic Stasis he would not have any text until after the ACTION on Cryogenic Statsis is activated therefore he would not have any card text during the beginning of the game to be able to place any cards underneath him.

William T RIker adds a Crew slot to the ship he is deployed to while building your fleet. If he is under Cryogenic Stasis he would not have any card text and would not provide this slot since he is not deployed to the ship while building your fleet.
